● other characters: Llŷrsoundsfishy
character information
● name: Lup Taaco
● canon: The Adventure Zone
● canon point: Episode 65, before turning into a lich with Barry.
● age: ~200 (It's complicated)
● (canon) background: Wiki + My Stolen Century Notes + TAZ Transcripts
● abilities:
Magic
Lup is a wizard of currently unknown level (at least 5th, seeing she can cast Fireball, which is a 3rd level spell you only get at level 5.) She's mentioned to 'grow furiously in arcane power' during the Stolen Century Arc, and considering the near century she's had to cultivate magic, she should be pretty high level by now. It would be easiest to play her as the same 'level' as Taako in the game.
However, wizards in D&D cannot cast spells forever, they have a specific amount of spells they can cast every day, aside from minor spells known as cantrips (which are unlimited).
Lup's specialty is the school of evocation, which is focused on spells that manipulate energy or tap unseen sources of power in order to produce a desired end. In effect, they created something out of nothing. Many of these spells produce spectacular effects, and evocation spells can deal large amounts of damage.
Essentially, she really likes to explode shit.
Evocation Wizard Spells
Elf
Elves in D&D 5E (and thus TAZ) do not need to sleep. Instead, they meditate deeply, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. It gives the same benefits as sleeping 8 hours. Due to this they cannot be magically put to sleep, either.
They're also very resistant to spells that charm a person, and they have darkvision, meaning they can see in the dark about up to 60 feet (but in black-and-white).
Talents
Lup and her brother were magical researchers while on the Starblaster ship, meaning she has talents in the foundations of the arcane and magical information, and did graduate from an unnamed magic academy at the top of her class with Taako.
She studied the violin for a year in one cycle and put on a really stunning performance at the end of it - so she must have an innate talent for music since a year of violin should still make you want to shave your eardrums off.
● strengths:
Moral Compass
Although Lup enjoys hustling people, stealing, killing to survive and honestly everything a little bit illegal, she still has a great respect for life. She went against all her friends wanting to destroy a world - and even the knowledge that it would only make their enemy stronger if they didn't, she would not budge.
In addition to this she's also the nicer of the Taaco twins and is more friendly and outgoing, having an easier time to make friends than her brother.
Protector
Growing up all alone with Taako, Lup was always the protector, the person to fight and keep them safe. This continues into her adulthood and now extends to her friends as well. She's willing to risk her life to protect her found family to the point where she's about to rip her soul out of her body and become undead.
Fiery
Her temper isn't all that's fiery; Lup is in general a very energetic and wild person who enjoys fun and blowing up stuff for the hell of it. She's the person who uses magic missile to shoot down driftwood tossed at her for shits and giggles, and unloads tommy guns into the air just for sheer awesomeness - plus that time she absolutely obliterated a whole fantasy DMV as part of her best day ever.
● weaknesses:
Snappy
Lup is not exactly the most polite person. She swears, she does ludicrous things for fun, and she's happy to take advantage of idiots. This seems to have been lessened a bit since she got on the Starblaster, but it doesn't mean she still won't call you a fucking idiot to your face without shame.
Emotional Issues
How do you use feelings? Lup is in no way as damaged as her brother, being from an earlier time than him and never having to be all alone, but they both grew up alone and deal badly with emotions. Serious moments are difficult in general for her, so if it isn't with her brother, she prefers to joke things away to lessen the tension - even when the situation is very serious.
A Stolen Century
Lup as spent the last 82 years in a GroundhogDay Year situation, running from an enemy that swallows whole worlds, appearing in different realities and dying so, so many times. This leaves scars on a person - she's watched whole worlds being destroyed, seen her friends die horribly, died horribly herself, only to reawaken alive and restored on their ship after a year has passed.
She's stressed, she's tired, she's paranoid and she will always, always look to the skies.
● skills (optional): Cooking (though not quite as flashily as her brother), mayhem, languages, triangulating, magical research.
● housing (optional): Most likely with Taako because hey garbage twins.
